This is long and you dont have to read all of it. I wanted to figure out a way to post what i was feeling. This is just as good as any. If you can help please do something. Please. we are so fortunate.

JNANCE1017: want to see a movie too maybe?
JNANCE1017: or no?
JNANCE1017: at the 1.50 maybe
kaye2690: yeha i have a ton of crap to do but its not at all planned...cheap movie might be good, im not sure if they have all that much playing
kaye2690: im getting poor again
kaye2690: i need a job
JNANCE1017: yeah i know what you mean
JNANCE1017: i want to give 100 $ to the Tsunami relief stuff so im trying to save a lot ya know
kaye2690: you're such a better person that i
kaye2690: m
kaye2690: ack n
JNANCE1017: shall we dance is playing... i dont know if thats any good. it looked cute at one point.
JNANCE1017: what? no im not
JNANCE1017: its just that ive been ranting and raving about it alot this week because this guy on CNN made me really really really really really spitting mad
JNANCE1017: so i figure i need to do something about it
kaye2690: i actually saw that and its kinda soso..whatd he do?
JNANCE1017: he opened his freaking mouth when he should have kept it shut
JNANCE1017: no... ill tell you
JNANCE1017: you know how Bush initially put up 35 mil. while he was surveying the conditions and impact on Sunday? well I agree that wasnt enough, but I mean everyone knew we would put up way more anyway.... but okay well you have to know something else baout my political views
kaye2690: it is kind of measly
kaye2690: didnt japan give like 500 million or something grand like that?
JNANCE1017: Republicans or Conservatives or whatever you want to say have this stigma of not wanting to help or not being compassionate which just pisses me off to no end because HELLO! so like with poor people or homeles... i feel like it is much more the responsibility of Americans to shoulder that burden and do something about it than the government.. and same thing with this. yeah Bush should set the example and he has now we are leading in funds, and not to mention the fact the we deployed like 10 ships and desalination tanks and supplies over there on Sunday which no one cares about... well anyway i think that the government should set an example the way it has but I firmly believe that it is up to the American people... like the way Pfizer jumped up and gave like 50$ and WalMart gave 100$ and so on.. all these companies, big and small, rich and poor, and tons and tons of people, doctors, and other volunteers are jumping up to help. well thats how i think it should be...
kaye2690: wait walmart gave how much?
kaye2690: yes that makes sense as well
kaye2690: like one hundred something
JNANCE1017: so anyway the guy KEPT SAYING OVER AND OVER AND OVER that Republicans arent compassionate and Republicans arent goodhearted and dont care about humanity and blah blah blah blah blah.... and so then i went ranting and raving like 10-fold what i just did to you about it but then i realized that i have to practice what im preaching so 100$ it is and whatever is in my savings account
kaye2690: or just one hundred
JNANCE1017: yeah million
JNANCE1017: both of those companies. my bad.
kaye2690: aaaahhh
kaye2690: hahaha
JNANCE1017:
kaye2690: i was like yeah good job , i hope thats not what she meant
JNANCE1017: hehe.. that would be really bad of them
JNANCE1017: so yeah. thats how i feel.
kaye2690: your whole savings?
JNANCE1017: yeah its not much at all
JNANCE1017: cause we went on the cruise
JNANCE1017: but i figure millions and millions of people lost everything and possibly everyone they had... its the least i can do to give up that money... besides i would just spend it on stupid stuff anyway
kaye2690: yeah
kaye2690: my parents wont let me touch my savings, cause they think i will die after college
JNANCE1017: hehe
kaye2690: which i probably go through a period of
kaye2690: will*
JNANCE1017: oh yes me too
JNANCE1017: well when i get a job this summer then i will start putting all that in it and next year the RA stuff... im really banking on that i hope i get it...
JNANCE1017: i couldnt watch CNN or anything today.. im just so sad about it all. everytime i think about it i feel so useless cause i cant help ya know
kaye2690: it actually sounds fun to have a summer job and not feel quite so dependent ....i know...adn then my dad and i started to talking about all the suffering of just the past 40 years and then i think all life is hopeless and painful so i try not to think about it about so much which is awful
JNANCE1017: yeah i know!!!!!!!!!!
JNANCE1017: and not to mention all of the DISEASE that is going to ensue
JNANCE1017: and did you hear about Sri Lanka? okay...
JNANCE1017: they are having this civil war over there ya know... everything is covered in landmines... all the relief workers are terrified to go anywhere there.. and who could blame them
kaye2690: yes
kaye2690: its like every disastrous suffering you can imagine
JNANCE1017: yeah no kidding
kaye2690: whole towns wiped out and the water and dead rotting bodies in the street and disease and orphans and no relief and crap everywhere and LANDMINES
kaye2690: seriously
kaye2690: what else
kaye2690: maybe it will stop the war for a long time
JNANCE1017: i know. well for a while
kaye2690: devastated people arent up for wars maybe?
JNANCE1017: maybe people will come together in their despair
JNANCE1017: but i think its a government thing and you know how those go.
kaye2690: i wish my parents would adopt
kaye2690: nows a good time for it
JNANCE1017: yeah. i wish i could adopt the whole country
JNANCE1017: countries*
kaye2690: i think one kid would be about all i could handle :-)
JNANCE1017: thats the OTHER sad part
JNANCE1017: its not just one country of devastation

i dont know that anyone in their right mind would read all of that... but its really really important to me. its not just the responsibility of the governments and the UN... its our job as fellow humans.

okay. well. i hope i didnt make any enemies.
